insurance is really screwed for me, because im 17 its over 2gs a year to insure and whenever i put a mod on its like an extra 100 bucks ontop, i was gonna install a pod and they said yeah 110 extra because its a performance mod and the pod doesnt even cost half that,it was 109 extra for an exhaust and around 100 for a set of any rims worth 2gs so ill be in the range of 3gs once i finish doing it up hahah owell

Doesn't matter who you go with. At your age, they are all like that. Thats why I waited, just drove a normal four door lancer with no mods and no go. Now that I'm 22 I have a good insurance record and can acctually afford to keep my R33 insured :huh:

I still pay $1200 (with mods), but that will drop a bit this year.

I was gonna buy an R32 GTR, but Just cars quoted me just over 6K for a 12 month policy :angry: Settled on the R34.

I'm 19 & it cost me just over 2K, that's on a policy I've had since I was 17. To start a new one & I'd be paying the better part of $3500 I was quoted. Luckily I'm now in a job where I can afford it but 2K is still a bloody rip no matter which way you look at it :huh: .

haha i nearly didnt buy it vause they told me that i thought 2 years and i could own another one stuff that.

and its just an r33 rb25det with 18s tints system bov air filter zorst custom interior and little otha crap and yeah i nearly fell over thats not joke my boss was standin next too me and i told him straight away and he laughed and if just cars quoted over 6 for the gtr imagine nrma my mate whos 20 now 19 at the time had similar dramas with them so i told him just cars to get his wrx done

mate consider urself lucky. wen i was 18 i paid $4600 with just cars for my r33 gtst series 2. im 20 now and paying 2800 for my 32 gtr with famous.

i wudnt be upset with 2g's lol

yeah but mine is just a gts not even turbo:( but yea seeing what ryno qoutes me only had the car insured for a week

its not much a week really only around 45 bucks so its reasonable

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
